TVLine confirmed that the Gotham Season 1 villain would recur for “multiple” episodes at some point after the prequel Bat-drama resumes its second season in February, without saying how, or what brings Fish back into the fold. The character had been given a rather ambiguous comic book end, thrown off a roof into icy waters below, having already been put through the wringer that season.

As many fans well remember, the Gotham fall finale featured a glimpse into the mysterious Indian Hill facility we know to play home to Bat-villains Mr. Freeze and Hugo Strange, while at least one figure floating in a tank more than suspiciously resembled Fish.
